Cowrite: Next 10 Pages

Well, the first Cowrite screenplay competition winners were announced and it wasn't me. As I said in my first post about this, I wasn't really expecting to win. My pages weren't all that great. After reading the winners pages, I was disappointed since they aren't that good but structurally, they did what the producers wanted. They introduced the characters, the main conflict, and left us on a bit of a cliffhanger. Personally, I still like my pages better but I can see why they weren't selected. Congrats to the victors!

So this brings us to the next 10 pages. I banged out 12 pages last night. Pretty good. Very standard with some been there. done that to it but pretty good, if I do say so myself. Some funny stuff although they may be more R rated than the producers want. I screwed up the time of day a bit, going from night to evening to night when it should be night the whole time. Also, my cliffhanger is essentially the same thing as the first 10 pages. The situation is similar yet completely different but they're still pretty damn similar. Maybe too much. Not sure if I'm going to spend the time writing another entry and tossing away another ten bucks but I'd like to try my hand at something more PG rated to see where I could go with it. But since I have other projects I'm working on, I doubt I'll do it.
